E_B_A Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Today I just finished this... I don't usually flat-out ask for criticism but I'm genuinely curious what people think. This is where I've evolved to. I'm going for a style that is kind of old-school clashing with calligraphy and something modern. I've been working on hands and letters for a long time now. Honest, helpful crits of where I'm at with this type of thing right here is appreciated, especially on the composition of the letters and the handie. I'd like to think my color choices, concepts and characters are pretty much on point but if you see flaws there with the overall composition, let me know. I'm trying to build and appreciate any crits that will get me there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decyferon Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 dope stuff Kes, Vims, wisogee and EBA (would have been quicker to say dope page lol) Mek you will be glad to hear I have finally managed to shift enough bills out the way that I should be dropping some cash and geting at least 24/48 cans of paint so should be hitting some walls soon as possible, as well as getting supplies for canvases to sell as well to fund more paint 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanut_butter_and Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Today I just finished this... I don't usually flat-out ask for criticism but I'm genuinely curious what people think. I think you need to work more on your letter structure and consistency across your letters, looks like your S belongs to a different piece, and your E is not as heavy as the rest, for example. Looks like you design each letter individually, whereas I'd like to see more integration through out with the shapes and structure. There isn't an overall flow to this piece, its just "letter" "letter" "letter" "letter", I think if you flex harder, and wild-out more and take more risky and daring lines, while at the same time dialing it back a bit in terms of complexity (both in terms of letter shape, and chunks and bits and arrows etc), you'll find great success. Make your loops and kicks bigger, more crazy, use visual weight and negative space to your advantage, theres a lot of awkward negative space in this piece between your letters. Technically you can draw very well, your perspective 3D is on point, a very difficult style of 3D to do well, i might add. Keep it up though!

The 's' i think is the best, be good to see you put that style into all your letters man it would look sweet. also the characters i dont feel fit in so much but thats prob just me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to build and appreciate any crits that will get me there. in my opinion, looks fresh, just something about the top of the S area around the T's top left bar and the stars, it doesn;t seem balanced with the other side. maybe you needed to reposition the starts to fill in the gap. or make the one close to center bigger. or maybe its the characters that make it feel unbalanced, you have two characters on the more busy side, when i think if you had two on the other it might feel more balanced overall. or maybe its the purple guys pointing arm that makes me feel this way. Just a thought. and alts, god damn dude, that fill is sexy, and feelin the letters too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makineasykills Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 The major problem with that is the large gap between the s and a. Try to swing the top of the s up to fill the gap. Also that e doesn't work at all. Look at the kick out on the s and do the sand thing with the e. It will help with the balance problem.

peanut_butter_and Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 ^that. Who would be interested in a crit thread for nontoy writers?

Thoughts?[/color][/size] Those who want crits can ask for them in here, no reason to make everyones internet surfing job any harder by checking and staying on top of multiple places.
